Woman hospitalised after Banora Point rollover the woman was “trapped by confinement”, with the car on its side.

“It’s difficult to exit the car when it’s on its side with the door facing upwards,” Mr Carr said.

“We had to use stabilising equipment to make sure the patient was secure before extricating her. She seemed to be okay.”

Fire and Rescue NSW Banora Point Deputy Captain Jamie Bowe said firefighters provided fire protection while the rescue was underway.

“It was a difficult extrication because there was broken glass and leaking fuel.

“Once the female occupant was removed from the car firefighters removed debris from the road and applied absorbent to the fuel spill.”

The woman was taken by ambulance to hospital.

Piggabeen mourns loss of a ‘beautiful young man’

By Jo Kennett CALEB SAUNDERS was laid to rest on Monday, August 23, after his life was tragically cut short following a motorbike accident.

The 25-year-old Piggabeen local was killed in a “nose to tail” collision with a water truck on the M1 at Tugun on Wednesday, August 11.

C a l eb wa s r i d i n g h i s motorcycle to work when the accident happened just after 6.30am.

Queensland paramedics attended, but Caleb could

not be revived and died at the scene.

The news of Caleb’s tragic death sent shockwaves t h ro u g h t h e t i g h t - k n i t Piggabeen community, with locals describing him as a “beautiful, gentle young man” who was “so nice to everyone.”

According to friend Donna Masing, Caleb was a mechanical engineer who graduated with first class h o n o u r s f ro m G r i ff i t h University.

“He was well known and loved within his Piggabeen

community for being a talented, kind and caring young man,” she told The Weekly.

“Caleb could often be found tinkering in his shed or doing projects with his long-time girlfriend.”

“His neighbours reflected that he was bright and clever with a great sense of humour – always up for a chat or to lend a hand when you needed it.

“He will be sorely missed”.

Due to COVID restrictions only ten family members and close friends were able

to attend Caleb’s funeral service, while other friends and family who were unable to attend watched what was described as “a lovely service” on a livestream.

Caleb is survived by his mother Phyllis, sister Georgie, and his girlfriend Jasmine.

The shame of it all

I am ashamed. I felt the need to explain to my family in the UK that many Australians are also stunned and horrified that the first Australian plane out of Kabul left with 26 passengers and 138 empty seats.

But I was completely unable to explain to them the kind of reality which must be inhabited by our Prime Minister, by our Defence and Foreign Ministers, and by the various government officials involved in making that decision, in order for them not to be ashamed of it.

How dare they try to justify it in retrospect. How dare former PM John Howard, who made such appalling comments about the refugees on the Tampa, presume to say anything at all about this terrible exposé of those in government.

Whilst the rest of the world is aghast, as it was over the Tampa incident, at the blatant xenophobia demonstrated by the Australian government, I can only repeat I am ashamed.

And I can hope that this lack of human decency on such a government-wide scale leads to a change of government.

I can’t be the only one who does not want to be represented at a national level by individuals working together to justify self-preservation at any cost. The cost of 138 lives.

Jackie Smith-Browne, Tweed Heads

Appalling response to refugee crisis

The Australian Government’s response to the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan is appalling.

The Federal Government have unfortunately once again used the crisis to rekindle fear and demonise refugees.

The humane and compassionate response is to welcome refugees from Afghanistan and give longterm certainty to those already in Australia on temporary visas.

The Best Technology in Solar Power, Off Grid, Residential & Business

You can get all the power you ever need from the sun on your roof. Power your home, your car and store energy for rainy days.

Never pay for power or have a blackout again.

The resurgence of the Taliban in Afghanistan is devastating for women, children, human rights activists, and ordinary people who will be subjected to authoritarian and oppressive governance.

The Australian Government and governments around the world now have an opportunity to increase the intake of refugees from Afghanistan on humanitarian grounds and provide refuge to those most at risk from the Taliban regime.

We should stand alongside returned veterans from Afghanistan in solidarity with the innocent men, women and children who will otherwise be subjected to reprisals and potentially brutal oppression.

Australia has shown greater compassion for refugees in the past.

After the Second World War in 1945, almost half a million Europeans were granted asylum in Australia.

Malcolm Fraser acted with great leadership to accept 150,000 refugees from Vietnam in the 1970s and Bob Hawke accepted 40,000 refugees from China following the Tiananmen Square killings in the 1980s.

Australia was an active participant in the war in Afghanistan and we have a moral obligation to respond to the devastation in that country with compassion and humanity.

The UK and Canada have both committed to accepting 20,000 refugees while Australia is only offering to take in 3,000 under an existing program.

This is unacceptable – we should open our doors to those at risk from the Taliban and welcome them so that they can enjoy a free and safe future. That is after all what we promised when we joined the allied forces in their mission in Afghanistan.

The Pottsville Refugee Support Group advocates for support for refugees in Australia and Afghanistan.

We are part of a network of rural support groups across Australian whose aim is to support and raise awareness of the plight of refugees.

Now we are calling on people to stand with us and support our call to increase the intake of Afghanistan refuges to at least 20,000 and to grand permanent residency visas to refugees currently in Australia.

Ian Hamilton, Pottsville Refugee Support Group

Fully vaccinated are the forgotten people

The fully vaccinated of the Tweed Shire or any of the other border shires with Queensland seem to have been forgotten.

We are implored to get vaccinated, which many people of these areas did earlier in the year, but what is the benefit?

There are high numbers of elderly and retirees, especially in the Tweed, who fully believed that by following government edict, they are now fully vaccinated, but where has it got them? Nowhere!

The Queensland Government in all its wisdom has deemed it ok for essential workers who have had one vaccine to cross the border to and fro, but it’s not okay for fully vaccinated people to do the same.

How does this make sense?

Dr Jeannette Young (Queensland Chief Health Officer) has stated on several occasions to please get vaccinated, but what for?

You can’t go anywhere, do anything, so what’s the point?

This totally undermines the very reason vaccination is our way to freedom. Fully vaccinated are the forgotten.

The Vietnam War, current wars, the economy, health and welfare – make up your own list.

Oh yeah, selling utilities to private interests will bring “greater economies and produce cheaper electricity”.

We are being told that our hospitals and critical care are at crisis point due to Covid. This may be true, but it is not due to Covid.

It is due to poor planning, lack of funding and massive political indifference. How long has Covid b e e n d e c l a re d a p a n d e m i c ?

What have governments and administrators been doing in that time?

Morrison has appointed a military general to facilitate a vaccine rollout.

Was he aware that particular general was instrumental in rebuilding the Afghan National Army and the Afghan National Police? That the general presided over the training of the “most underfed, undertrained force under the command of the most corrupt officers in service to an even more corrupt government”.

A word of warning to the general, you’re being set up as the fall guy, but then again, you’ve had experience in that.

After all the lies, governments are still saying “trust us...we’re taking the best advice available...”

My money is on Socrates.

Mark Osburg, Casuarina

I believe we need to protect our birds Mr Karlos

Councils are run by strict rules, by-laws, regulations and protocols set down under various government acts.

Each councillor has an equal vote, the majority wins, and the mayor – who doesn’t run the council – has the deciding vote if the vote is tied.

All are bound by the same rules which they swear under oath to abide by.

This democratic system is set up to impartially judge motions, and development applications on their merit and compliance with local strategic plans for the shire.

Congratulations for your decision to run for election Mr Karlos.

The impression I got from your interview in the TVW on August 19 was that of a high-end businessman who likes to fly his own chopper and has little respect for others’ decisions.

Your three ‘Rs’ agenda is the same as every candidate puts forward at every election and is meaningless nonsense.

The sacred ibis, a native bird just trying to survive and raise a family like most of us, is protected by NSW National Parks who may have a few issues with destroying their nesting sites.

Your disdain for this bird casts a shadow of how other wildlife species you don’t like are going to fare if you are elected.

Your interview was honest and candid, and I wish you well.

Karen Gail, Crystal Creek

Thank you – I’m okay after fall

Do reassure those round-eyed children who were with you that I am fine.

“NSW Police are taking the threat of unauthorised protest activity extremely seriously and will not hesitate in the enforcement of the Public Health Orders.

“It is disappointing that people in our community continue to put others’ lives in danger by attending mass gatherings in the current climate.”

Supt Roptell said further inquiries will be made to identify those who were in attendance at the protest and “appropriate action will be taken”.

“We thank the majority of the community for doing the right thing by staying home and staying safe – and for their ongoing support of local police carrying out their duties to protect the public,” Supt Roptell said.

“I don’t think anyone in government could see the protest as anything more than a cry for help.

“We need to listen and we need to find a solution. Our community is hurting.”

Meanwhile, Tweed-Byron Police District Commander, Superintendent David Roptell, said officers responded swiftly to disrupt the activities of protestors in the area.

“It is in the best interest of the health and safety of everyone across the state and around Australia, to comply with the Public Health Orders, so we may see the end of lockdown,” Supt Roptell said.

By Jonathon Howard TWEED SHIRE Mayor Chris Cherry said it was important not to be “too quick to judge those attending the protest” at the NSW-Queensland border on Sunday, August 22.

The protest was attended by about 1,000 people and some clashed with Tweed Police who moved through the crowd arresting eight people and fining more than 50.

“It showed the desperation people are feeling and the frustration at feeling like they are not being heard,” Mayor Cherry said.

“These were ordinary mums and dads that would not normally consider going against a health directive.

“I don’t think we should be too quick to judge all those who attended the protest.

“Unless you have been in that situation of not knowing if your job will be there for you when the restrictions are lifted, or seen your business go to the wall because you can’t get the supplies in to honour the contracts you have, you can’t understand the desperation.”

Mayor Cherry said many residents have expressed frustration with the Tweed Shire being lumped into the Sydney lockdown scenario, despite no recorded cases locally.

“People are feeling like they have no control over their lives, many have expressed to me that they feel like residents of the Tweed have done everything the government has asked of them, they have worn masks, they have socially distanced, checked-in and stayed at home,” she said.

“There are no cases in the Tweed. Nor have there been since the beginning of the pandemic.

“And yet we still had the lockdown extended. There are nearly 100,000

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Serpents are stirring as spring approaches Can employers demand Covid vaccinations?

There is a great deal of confusion about whether employers have the legal power to demand their workers get vaccinated against Covid-19.

The federal government has said it won’t give employers a free hand to make vaccinations compulsory for employees or for on-site visitors.

Responsibility for deciding whether to mandate employee vaccinations lies with individual businesses, the government has said. Employers will have to consider their obligations under state workplace safety, antidiscrimination and privacy laws.

Qantas, Alliance Airlines and Shepparton canning company SPC have declared they will make Covid-19 vaccinations mandatory for their workers, and are prepared to defend their actions in court. The government praised the approach of Qantas, which said surveys found its 22,000 staff backed mandatory vaccination.

Employment lawyer Emily Wittig of Stacks Law Firm said labour laws require consultation before major changes to work, health and safety rules. The uncertainty could end in a test case before a court.

“The key issue for such a direction to be lawful will be a question of fact,” Ms Wittig said.

“The direction must be tested and determined if it is ‘reasonable in the circumstances’. A further test would require an analysis of an employee’s refusal. Do they have medical, religious or some other reason to refuse the jab?

“If an employer wishes to implement a mandatory vaccination policy, they will have to consult the workforce. The Modern Awards require consultation for major workplace changes such as this.

“Employers with multiple work tiers will need to consult workers to see if alternative positions could be found that don’t require close physical contact with other workers or customers.

They still face the risk of unfair dismissal or discrimination charges. Some employers want legal indemnities before they take action.

“Certainty would best be provided through a state government public health order, which would mean mandatory work jabs are driven by the advice of health professionals, not by politicians or company bosses.”

The Fair Work Ombudsman says employers can direct employees to be vaccinated if the direction is “lawful and reasonable”. Its advice divides work into four tiers.

For Tiers 1 and 2, where workers interact with people, the direction to be vaccinated is “more likely” to be considered reasonable. For Tiers 3 and 4, where there is little or no contact with people, a direction to be vaccinated is less likely to be classed as reasonable.

“The Ombudsman advises both employer and employee to seek legal advice from lawyers specialising in workplace law,” Ms Wittig said.

By Jonathon Howard SNAKES ARE stirring throughout the Tweed Shire and according to professional snake catcher Max Walker, serpents are seeking a feed and a mate.

Mr Walker said coastal carpet pythons are very common in the Tweed and there’s also several poisonous snakes to be mindful of.

“Of the dangerous snakes, the eastern brown is the most common in this area. It eats lizards, birds, frogs and small mammals such as mice and rats,” he told The Weekly.

“The eastern brown lives underground, emerging only to get some sun and to hunt.

“If you encounter one, stand still and it will turn and flee – hard to do if you are just in thongs.

“They are very cautious and secretive – they don’t hunt humans or pets but will defend themselves against attack.”

Mr Walker said the start of spring marks the start of the snake season in the Tweed and residents could spot all sorts of snake rituals including fights for dominance or mating.

“During this time, some people get to witness male

snakes of similar size fighting for dominance,” he said.

“They do this by wrapping around one another to engage in a test of strength. The strongest will manage to get his head over the head of the rival and force it down. This may go on for quite some time.”

Mr Walker said mating snakes will also wrap around each other, “but it is a gentler affair”.

Mr Walker said snakes have a “live and let live” attitude unless you are on the menu, “which is quite an extensive range”.

“Being great climbers, it is common for them to get into the roof under the tiles or corrugated iron, clean up any mice that might be in the roof and move on down the street,” he said.

Mr Walker wanted to remind all residents that it is illegal to harm Australian wildlife, including snakes ,and his snake removal services, along with several other local snake experts, is available any time.

“Please respect them and leave them alone,” he said.

By Jonathon Howard A BRAZEN drug runner from Sydney has attempted t o c ro s s t h e N S WQueensland border not once but twice carrying 145 kilos of cannabis in his vehicle.

T h e 4 8 - ye a r- o l d m a n prompted police interest after his Mercedes Sprinter van came back for a second try at the Coolangatta border crossing on Thursday, August 19.

Tweed Police were called in and the man told police he was transporting goods and had travelled from South

Australia, but could not provide a valid permit.

“Subsequent inquiries revealed the man was from Greater Sydney,” police said.

“He was arrested and taken to Tweed Heads District Hospital for Covid testing.”

Police said the vehicle was seized and taken to Tweed Heads Police Station and during a search of the vehicle, police located 145kgs of cannabis in vacuum sealed bags that were concealed inside two large hot water systems and a toolbox.

“The cannabis has an estimated potential street

value of $1.2 million,” police said.

“Police also seized two mobile phones, a knife, and other documentation. All items will undergo further testing.”

After receiving a negative result, the man was taken to Tweed Heads Police Station and charged with supplying a large commercial quantity of a prohibited drug, custody of a knife in a public place, not complying with COVID-19 directions and travelling from metropolitan Sydney.

There have been 10 confirmed sightings of feral deer in the Tweed in just a few months.

Feral deer are here – new sightings in the Tweed Ten confirmed sightings of deer in the Tweed and 2 in the Kyogle region have been recorded since the Northern Rivers Feral Deer Alert program was launched in May. Council’s Feral Deer Management Officer Rachel Hughes said that in the past week, 2 sightings were reported in the Tweed at Bilambil Heights, one at Pottsville and one at Crabbes Creek near the Tweed Shire border.

“These weren’t just way out in the bush as people might think, they are moving in very close to residential areas,” Ms Hughes said.

“We know people aren’t out and about at the moment during the lockdown, however we really need your help if you do see a deer as this can get away from us if we don’t act now – the deer won’t wait for us.”

Ms Hughes said as a community, we need to be on high alert

because having feral deer in built-up areas comes with an increased risk of vehicle collisions, harassment of pets, animals and cattle and finding deer in backyards eating vegetable patches.

“The advice is not to approach the deer as they can get aggressive, especially in their mating season,” she said.

This community awareness campaign aims to prevent feral deer numbers growing out of control in the region.

“We urge the community to report any sightings and take a photo or video if it’s safe to do so. Receiving reports from the public is critical to prevent the deer situation from escalating,” Ms Hughes said.

Prevent feral deer getting out of control by reporting all sightings at feralscan.org.au/deerscan or phone Local Land Services on 1300 795 299. For more information go to feraldeeralert.com.au

The Courthouse Hotel has a new owner Michael Dixon (inset)

Meet the new Courthouse Hotel owner

By Jonathon Howard MURWILLUMBAH’S COURTHOUSE Hotel has recently sold for $6 million with new owner and operator Michael Dixon at the helm.

Mr Dixon is passionate about community hotels and is now the proud owner-operator of three hotels at Burpengary, Caloundra West and now the 60 Murwillumbah Street site.

Mr Dixon spoke to The Weekly on Monday, August 23, to share his vision for one of Murwillumbah’s longest running watering holes, where he plans to take a hands-on role with a focus on supporting locals.

“I’m working on some renovation plans, nothing too major though, just some new furnishings and a freshen up,” he said.

“We’re also expanding some of the areas downstairs and some of the gaming areas upstairs to include more seating and just a freshen up again really.

“The most important thing is we’re offering the same great service with a focus on supporting local suppliers where possible and the local community.”

Mr Dixon said the whole Courthouse Hotel team was staying on in their respective roles and the team was eager to get back into business.

“All the staff have stayed on, which is great, and we’re keeping them all employed during the lockdown,” he said.

Mr Dixon said the lockdown was a “tough situation” for pubs and clubs, but he was confident once lockdowns are lifted the Courthouse Hotel will be busy once more.

“There’s not much we can do about it, but we’re obviously very keen to see it open in full soon,” he said.

“We look forward to lockdowns lifting, but in the meantime, we’re following the rules to get out of this as quickly as possible.

“We are still offering takeaway alcohol, takeaway coffees and takeaway food, as well as accommodation which is across our 18 accommodation suites.”

Anyone wanting to order takeaway food from the Courthouse Hotel, or for more information including accommodation, please phone the hotel on: (02) 6672 1044.

Pharmacists ramp up vaccine rollout

86450

CHC52015

By Jonathon Howard PHARMACIES ACROSS the Tweed are reporting a rush of residents taking up the COVID-19 AstraZeneca vaccine with around 50 jabs a day taking place at Mapp & Hession Pharmacy in Murwillumbah.

While supplies of AstraZeneca remain plentiful, Mapp & Hession part-owner Paul Hession said, “the best vaccine is the one you can get today”.

“We are encouraging residents to speak to their GPs and pop in and get it done as soon as possible,” he said.

Sunnyside Soul Pattison Chemist owner Robert Nieh said his business is receiving around 600 doses of AstraZeneca every three weeks and they are moving quick.

“From last Monday, we’re already given 300 jabs and counting, with plenty still available,” he said.

“We are also encouraging everyone to come in and get the vaccine.”

Mr Nieh said the government has allowed a top up for pharmacies every three weeks.

“So every three weeks we will receive another 600 doses,” Mr Nieh said.

“I’d like to thank those residents who have already come forward and encourage others to do the same and get out of lockdown as quickly as possible.”

Mr Hession highlighted that residents are coming forward in their droves to help increase vaccination rates and “ultimately reduce restrictions in NSW”.

“I’m pleased to say the response has been overwhelming,” he said.

“We initially thought we’d be doing a dozen or so jabs a day, but we have rapidly had to expand to accommodate up to 50 vaccinations a day.

“The public have been very accepting of pharmacy as a vaccination channel.

“It has been helped in no small part by the Queensland Government decision to require vaccinations to cross the border, but it has been very rewarding from my perspective to be able to help many desperate workers who previously could not access the vaccine.

“Our initial online booking system almost immediately booked out, and so we had to

Mapp & Hession pharmacist Colin with a box of AstraZeneca vaccine

resort to a manual system to increase capacity and fit people in as they called us desperate to get the vaccine.”

Mr Hession said in only a short time, Australian community pharmacies have reached the milestone of 100,000 vaccinations given.

“Once the 3,500 pharmacies nationwide come fully online, this number will rapidly increase,” he said.

“While the pharmacy sector at present is only providing the AstraZeneca vaccine, the demand is extremely strong.

“The good news is supply is good, the only limitation we have is the number of hours in a day to provide the vaccination.

“Pharmacies are still advising patients on their eligibility for the vaccine, and every patient must give informed consent and complete the necessary paperwork to receive the vaccine.

“Once immunised, the record is uploaded to the Australian Immunisation Register, so the patient can view their vaccination status via the Medicare app on their phone, or we can print out a paper copy if desired.”

Get ready for the bushfire season

By Jonathon Howard TWEED FIRE authorities are urging residents to get ready for the upcoming bushfire danger period which begins on Wednesday, September 1.

NSW Rural Fire Service (NSW RFS) is urging residents to “prepare now”, as forecasts indicate hot and dry conditions which could spur on another dangerous fire season.

NSW RFS Superintendent David Cook is urging residents in the Far North Coast and Northern Rivers to make and discuss their bushfire survival plan.

“Having a bushfire survival plan will ensure all members of the household know what to do on days of increased fire danger and what to do if their home is threatened by fire,” he said.

Supt Cook said with summer conditions in the Northern Rivers becoming more

conducive to the spread of fire, people need to be extremely careful when using fire.

“Residents should prepare their property by removing flammable materials from their yards, clearing leaves from gutters, checking hoses can reach all around the house and where appropriate, conducting hazard reduction activities,” he said.

“Residents can ask their local Fire Control Centre for assistance in carrying out safe hazard reductions and for advice about whether they need a Bush Fire Hazard Reduction Certificate.

“Never leave a fire unattended and if a fire does escape, it is essential to call Triple Zero (000) immediately.”

Information about hazard reduction burning and required notifications is available on the NSW RFS website at www.rfs.nsw.gov.au/ fire-information/BFDP.

“I’ve grown up here and before the [Azure] estate was built the road was wider, but now it’s more narrow for the first 500 metres.

“I knew something was going to happen eventually.

“I’ve noticed a lot of near misses because the bend makes it hard to see what is coming around the corner.

“I’ve had a couple of near misses with people coming across the centre line, but now there isn’t enough space to accommodate it; you can barely fit two cars on a good day.”

Talitha hopes hearing about the accident will encourage people to take care on the road.

“Because accidents happen and it’s going to happen again,’ she said.

“When I drove away I thought a speed camera wouldn’t go astray – where the estate starts to the end of the estate the road is narrow, but it gets narrower as you go down it.

“I hear cars speed past my place, and I think a speed camera near the estate, just down from where the accident happened, opposite the estate but to the south of Terranora Road will deter people from speeding up those last 400 metres.”

Talitha said there were a lot of P-plate drivers that hang around the area and she was concerned that people in general are “speeding far too much most of the time”.

“I thought it was only a matter of time before one of the kids flies around there and ends up like that boy did yesterday,” she said.

“My parents lobbied the council for a speed hump a few years ago but nothing happened.”

The Weekly contacted Transport NSW over the concerns but did not hear back prior to the print deadline.

By Jo Kennett A TEENAGE motorbike rider has been hospitalised after being hit by a car at Terranora on Sunday, August 22.

Emergency services were called to the scene of the accident on McAuleys Road around 4.45pm.

Local resident Talitha Natt was one of the first on the scene of the accident.

“I pulled out of my driveway and saw a fourwheel drive ahead parked in the middle of the road and I saw the kid lying on the ground with people around him,” she said.

“Then I saw the motorbike and it was all beaten up and dented; it was a write-off.

“The windscreen of the car had cracks and there were dents in the bonnet; it was a mess and there was stuff all over the road and it was a miracle that the kid wasn’t dead to be honest.”

Talitha said the woman driving the car was “visibly upset” and on the phone calling an ambulance.

“She was in shock and I felt really horrible for her and the boy’s friends were standing around him waiting for the ambulance,” Talitha said.

“I could tell his wrist was broken, but you couldn’t tell if he had any spinal injuries.

“I saw his dad’s post afterwards saying he had two broken wrists.”

Talitha said she left once the boy’s father arrived.

“He came up and was kneeling behind him and he was in shock,” she said.

“He was trying to work out how bad his injuries were and I felt really bad for him.

“The kid will be fine, he will have surgery and his life will carry on, but it could have been so much worse.”

The accident happened near the corner of Rayles Lane and McAuleys Road.

“The kid on the motorbike would have come around the bend and was just past Rayles Lane,” she told The Weekly.

Councillors vote to clean up roadside rubbish

By Jonathon Howard ROADSIDE RUBBISH and weed management should not be ignored, according to Tweed Shire councillors, who carried a unanimous vote to write to the NSW Premier requesting a percentage of the Tweed’s waste levy be returned to Council to enable regular litter collection from roadsides and waterways.

Several Tweed Shire roads can be seen strewn with litter or sometimes even bags of garbage and councillors want more resources to address the issue.

The Weekly has received several reports of roadside dumping sites near Uki, Nunderi and South Murwillumbah.

Councillors voted on the waste levy motion during their monthly meeting on Thursday, August 19, with councillors noting there is new technology being developed for roadside litter and weed management.

“Unfortunately, there is very limited capacity for Council to fund roadside maintenance for litter collection or more environmentally sensitive vegetation management as budget priorities have had to shift to respond to the NSW ‘Fit for the Future’ benchmarks which do not include environmental considerations in these built assets and financial management targets,” the motion reads.

Council will now write to the Premier and responsible Ministers for Waste, Pollution, Fisheries, Environment and Infrastructure to request that a fixed percentage of the waste levy be returned to Council to enable regular litter collection from roadsides and waterways, highlighting that the Tweed Shire is the highest biodiversity hotspot of NSW and an internationally significant environment, that warrants special consideration.

Council will now also include consideration of increased litter collection and roadside weed management in future budgets.

The North East Waste group will be requested to undertake a campaign with messaging about the impact of litter to wildlife and providing incentives.

Council will also consider undertaking a trial of the Transport for NSW Slasherteck guidepost mower.

Essential worker definition needed

By Jonathon Howard THE DEFINITION of an essential worker needs to be considered by National Cabinet and adopted by the Commonwealth, according to Tweed Shire Councillor James Owen.

Cr Owen said the recent strengthening by the Queensland Government of the criteria for essential workers has brought the Tweed Shire to its knees.

“I write to urgently request federal intervention, and for the adoption of a Commonwealth definition of an essential worker at the next National Cabinet meeting,” he said.

Cr Owen said the Queensland Government’s current definition of an essential worker is very narrow and excludes, amongst others, teachers, childcare workers, construction workers, hospitality workers and those in some administration roles.

But there have also been reports of firefighters and paramedics excluded at the border alongside images of pathologies exchanging medical tests by passing coolers across the border.

“People can’t work and children can’t go to school, despite there never having been a case of COVID-19 in the Tweed Shire,” Cr Owen said.

“Whilst previous hard border closures implemented by the Queensland Government have been frustrating, the current dire situation is preventing our community from functioning, as it significantly limits the number of Tweed Shire residents who can travel across the border for work.”

Cr Owen said he’s recently received advice that some NSW-based Queensland Government frontline workers have been stood down in the interim and advised to take pandemic leave.

“In addition, those deemed to be an essential worker who travel within the Queensland/ NSW border zone must have received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine,” he said.

Queensland Police were this week requesting anyone crossing the border to provide proof of their vaccine jab via a vaccination certificate available through Medicare.

“This situation is compounded by the limited availability of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine in the Tweed Shire,” Cr Owen said.

“For a border community that is as interconnected as the Tweed Shire and the Gold Coast, these recent changes have forced many Tweed Shire residents into unemployment, and subsequently onto government assistance to survive.

“These are people that are desperate to work.

Last year the federal government defined anyone with a job as an essential worker.

“We now see state governments arbitrarily determining who is and who isn’t an essential worker with devastating impacts.”

Cr James Owen is calling on National Cabinet to provide a definition for essential workers

Petition started after near miss at Koala Beach Queensland Government

By Jo Kennett A PETITION has been created for Pottsville residents concerned about the speed cars are travelling on Koala Beach roads, after a child was almost hit by a car on Friday, August 20.

Ben Musgrove said his son was crossing the pedestrian crossing near the koala park playground on his pushbike when the incident took place.

“He was crossing at the zebra crossing when a car zoomed around the corner and saw him at the last moment; he put his brakes on and they screeched to a halt,” he said.

“A local family were at the park and the mum said the car stopped to avoid hitting him and then yelled out the window and gave him the finger and sped off. He’s nine years old.

“Ollie’s okay, he had a bit of a knock on his face where his handlebars went into his face, but it was just bumps and scratches, he’s pretty resilient.”

Ollie managed to give Erin McFarlane, who came to his rescue, his Dad’s phone number to call him to let him know what had happened.

“I was working from home so I was there in three minutes,” Ben said.

“He was pretty shaken up and not thinking very straight.

“It’s pretty close to home because his sister has been run over by a car before so my wife was very upset.

“She lives and breathes it as a mum and has already dealt with that.”

Erin said no one seemed to slow down for the pedestrian crossing and Ben said the whole of Koala Beach is already a 40km zone and the zebra crossing is 25km, “so what speed the person was travelling I don’t know.”

“It certainly wasn’t the speed limit,” he said.

to blame says local MP

Renee, Noah and Ollie Gilmore with Irene Timmins at the Koala Beach crossing

“Now there is a petition to do something about slowing the traffic down and I’m super supportive of that, especially because there are 20 or 30 kids in our street alone.

“To all the drivers out there, just slow down and be careful of our children, they are important.”

Local resident Irene Timmins started the petition after hearing about the near miss.

“I started the petition because Ollie was on a pedestrian crossing and we have kids from the primary school going up and down the street and the whole road system is just dangerous,” she said.

“Someone else said they saw someone in a four-wheel drive going over that crossing and they were (allegedly) texting, so people’s awareness is just not there and it shows how little regard they have for the fact they are in a residential area.

“I’ve done some research and put a report together and given it to Council highlighting areas of concern to try to do something about it.

“They say they feel Koala Beach is well set up, but they aren’t looking at the schools and the traffic and we need them to do a review of Koala Beach roads

to make sure they are safe for children and wildlife.”

Irene pointed out that the population had exploded and said something needed to be done to force drivers to slow down.

“The incidents of wildlife fatality on Koala Beach roads – especially the main roads people are using to cut through from Seabreeze to Tweed Coast Road – has been really high and very distressing,” she told The Weekly.

“People that live on those streets are finding dead wildlife all the time; it’s a big problem.

“I’ve been talking to Council about it for a while and wildlife carers are really concerned.

“Other people say they are scared for their children playing outside because they are getting drivers going 80km per hour.”

Irene said the area near the school was a concern for wildlife.

“There is a koala that crosses just near the primary school halfway up Cudgera Avenue where there is nothing to slow the traffic,” she said.

“Echidnas get run over there a lot.

“That’s why I’ve done the petition. The Council needs to know the community is concerned.”

MEMBER FOR Tweed Geoff Provest says the Queensland Government is being economical with the truth when it claimed it is “doing all it can to ease the Tweed border situation”.

“The arbitrary border restrictions are imposed by the Queensland Premier and only she has the power to lift or at least modify them,” Mr Provest said.

“Stopping essential workers, including medical professionals, from crossing the border doesn’t save any lives, it puts lives at risk.”

Mr Provest said it made no medical sense given that the Tweed has a better Covid record than Queensland, no active cases and a greater proportion of people vaccinated.

“The stats show an immediate return to the border zone system we had in place until recently is the healthiest option for both communities,” he said.

“Queensland knows full well its proposal to move the checkpoints across the Tweed River is not possible in the short term, it is just using this fantasy to distract people from the dire problems of its own making.”

Cops target border walkers QUEENSLAND POLICE have announced they are cracking down on ‘border hoppers’ who are sneaking across the border from NSW into the sunshine state.

Queensland Police said a number of people have been seen walking across unmanned border points in recent days to get around the Queensland Government’s border restrictions.

Queensland Police Commissioner Katarina Carroll said she was “terribly disappointed” to see people breaking the rules and potentially putting the community at risk.

“It’s always that small proportion of the community that sometimes makes this incredibly difficult,” she said.

“I ask that the community cooperates and be compliant and that has been absolutely amazing to date.”

Queensland Police said another 5,000 vehicles were intercepted at the border on Monday, August 23, as part of checks on both normal and heavy vehicles.

A total of 199 vehicles were refused entry into Queensland, including 17 essential workers who had not yet received their first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.

Tropical Fruit World scoops top BEATS award

By Jonathon Howard LOCKDOWN MAY have put a stop to formal proceedings for the Business Excellence Awards Tweed Shire (BEATS) in 2021, but that has not stopped businesses from being acknowledged for their achievements.

The list of 15 winners was announced in The Weekly on August 19, with five local categories and 10 regional categories, as well as the highly coveted Business of the Year award.

The Weekly was proud to announce this year’s Excellence in Business Award and Business of the Year was Tropical Fruit World.

Tropical Fruit World’s general manager Aymon Gow said the team was “thrilled with the win” and expressed a need for some good local news.

“We are thrilled to be awarded Business of the Year and to win the Excellence in Business category as well, the whole team were very

excited by some good news in a difficult month,” he said.

“Collaboration and sustainability has always been the cornerstone of our business ethos and this couldn’t be more important than in the current climate.

“When we come through lockdown – and we will – it will be imperative that the business community unites to work together to get back up and running.

“As businesses we are so lucky to have a local community that truly supports local.

“Big thank you to the owners, staff and family that make up Tropical Fruit World.”

Each year, BEATS provides an outstanding platform to promote and acknowledge the Tweed Shire’s businesses, especially during these challenging times.

The Weekly will be in contact with other local business winners for follow up stories in the coming weeks (read page 17 for more).

Celebrating one year of Murwillumbah BNI

ABUNDANCE MURWILLUMBAH

By Jo Kennett THE MURWILLUMBAH BNI Chapter is celebrating its first birthday on Tuesday, August 31, and everyone’s invited.

BNI brings motivated and inspirational business leaders together in a strong network that allows their businesses to grow through a referral system that operates all over the world.

The Murwillumbah chapter started out a year ago to change the way business is done in the Tweed Valley, with great results.

The Weekly caught up with passionate Murwillumbah BNI president and finance broker at Loan Market, Suzanne Dewhurst, who said many businesses are now reaping the rewards.

Ms Dewhurst said the BNI philosophy of ‘Givers Gain’ is applied: ‘If I give business to the members of my Chapter, in return they will want to give business to me’.

The group meets weekly, with strong relationships forming amongst a great bunch of locals.

“We have over the past 12 months made great friends through our chapter – part of our networking activities are regular social events.”

BNI provides a positive, supportive, and structured environment for the development and exchange of quality business referrals. It does so by helping you build relationships with dozens of other qualified business professionals

Ms Dewhurst said it is common knowledge that we will always refer more to people that we know, like and trust.

“BNI gives us the opportunity and the skills we need to make this happen,” she said.

“We connect each week, we get to know each other, and we learn how we can refer businesses to each other and help each other grow.

“There is a saying that is often heard by the long-term BNI members: I joined for the business, but stayed for the people.”

“We meet at Johnny Francos Place restaurant, where they make the best coffee in town – definitely worth getting up early once a week for,” she said.

“Our first birthday celebrations will be on Tuesday, August 31, hopefully in person, but if lockdown is extended, it will be on Zoom.

“Everyone is invited, please register to attend, or contact a member who will do it for you.

If we are on Zoom, you will be.”

To find out more please and to get invited to the next meeting of BNI Abundance, or to just find out more please ring president, Suzanne Dewhurst on 0406 641 559 or vice president, Mark Moore on 0406 584 864 They would love to welcome you along to a meeting and shout you a coffee.

Julia has also taken out the award for Outstanding Business Leader.

This is Donna’s second win in this category, having first taken out the BEATS gong in 2019 before going on to win the regional award for the Northern Rivers region.

She was a state finalist shortly before the COVID-19 pandemic began.

“I was so honoured to have been recognised for my business success, but to share these wins with Julia makes it even more special,” Donna told The Weekly.

“It’s a source of great pride for all of us that the two most successful business leaders in the Tweed are from the same family.

“We are ecstatic and plan to celebrate with the whole clan when we are allowed.

“These awards are testament to the resilience of both our businesses, which have both grown since the pandemic began, and to the hard work we both put in, every single day.

Pandemic fatigue? Find out more Follow Heidi’s tips to keep the kids learning about COVID-19 financial support

By Jo Kennett AS COVID-19 and its effects continue to impact millions of Australians, it’s important to remember that support is available for those experiencing “pandemic fatigue” according to a local health expert.

Healthy North Coast Chief Executive Julie Sturgess said there were many useful resources for people feeling overwhelmed, as well as for people suffering financially.

“We’ve been dealing with COVID-19 for the past 18 months, the threat it poses to ourselves and our communities, and now a large part of our region is in lockdown,” Ms Sturgess said.

“Everyone is different and we all deal with adversity in our own way, but I want to encourage anyone who is feeling down, or struggling to cope, to tap into the available resources.

“We understand these are challenging times, so we need to be kind to ourselves and those around us, stay in touch with friends and family and seek professional support when needed.”

Ms Sturgess said the National Mental Health Commission (NMHC) had identified a number of feelings and behaviours that indicated pandemic fatigue.

It recommended some simple measures to help overcome these feelings.

Pandemic fatigue – symptoms and solutions Pandemic fatigue can include feelings of tiredness, frustration, low energy, restlessness, irritability, hopelessness and dread.

It can also be indicated by difficulty in looking forward to tomorrow, wanting to be alone, through increased use of alcohol and other substances, and lack of enthusiasm for things you would normally enjoy.

Some of the most effective ways to overcome these feelings include: identify and practise

self-care strategies that work for you. Keep kids communicating – let children know it is okay to be worried and talk it out. Get sweaty – exercise is great for mental health. Reach out to those who may not have connections.

Follow facts from trusted sources. Take a break – do the things you’ve been putting off for a rainy day.

Financial support available For people experiencing financial difficulty, or adversely affected by COVID-19 – including current state public health orders such as lockdown, both the NSW and Australian governments can provide financial assistance.

For more information or to apply for assistance visit: https://www.nsw.gov.au/ covid-19/financial-support.

The website includes details on the COVID-19 disaster payment; the pandemic leave disaster payment; as well as information for residential tenants, for homeowners; on vouchers and payments; help and support services; the 2021 COVID-19 Support Package; and more.

Service NSW has a hotline to speak to someone about your individual situation, please call: 137 788.

Call the National Coronavirus Helpline 24/7 on 1800 020 080 for information on coronavirus.

Talk it over If at any time you feel overwhelmed by any feelings, it is important that you talk to someone you trust.

By Heidi Reed ARE YOU going crazy with the kids in the house while you try to work from home?

Do you need some help to keep them busy and learning while the schools are closed?

Well help is available. Here are some simple ideas to keep them engaged, learning and perhaps out of your hair.

Be sure to offer rewards such as screen time, treats or stickers for motivation.

Outdoor Science challenge Get the kids outside with a phone or camera to take pictures and a ruler or tape measure.

They need to find the following and bring it back or bring pictures to share with you.

If they are too young, you can go with them.

You can change the list to fit your child’s age.

1. Water that is in the form of a solid, liquid, or gas.

2. A natural resource.

3. Matter that is solid and sinks in water.

4. Matter that floats in water and is not magnetic.

5. A shadow that is 10 to 20 centimetres long.

6. A mixture of two or more substances.

7. An example of mechanical energy.

8. An animal interacting with its environment; 9. Plant roots.

10. Soil that supports a healthy plant.

11. An organism in the adult stage of its life cycle.

12. A cracked rock.

If they are older, have them get online and tell you more about one or two of their objects and do a presentation.

Outdoor maths game Place number cards on the ground, or draw numbers on the pavement using chalk.

Ask students to answer a maths question or identify a number called out.

For example, if you say “three” a young child finds the three, bounces the ball on the number three times and then shoots a basket – you can

draw a circle on the ground as the basket or use a box if you don’t have a hoop.

For an older child, you can use multiplication or addition, and they bounce the ball on two numbers or multiple times, say the answer and shoot. They get points for baskets they shoot.

Spelling in the sand Give your child a list of spelling words from their textbooks or from their real classroom.

Give them 20 minutes to study and practice at home with pen and paper.

Then take them to the beach or playground and give them sticks to write in the sand.

This is great with two kids, as they can test each other and check the other’s answers, otherwise, parents need to do the testing.

For each correct answer you can reward them with stickers or if at the beach, they can run and get a seashell for each word they get right.

At the end, the child with the most shells wins. You can also go home and make crafts with the seashells. The sand is great for Pictionary and other games too.

Commemoration for Tweed pioneer Paddy Smith Council sponsorship

By Jonathon Howard AFTER BEING convicted of pickpocketing in Ireland in 1825, Patrick ‘Paddy’ Smith was only 13 when he was bundled onto a ship bound for Sydney to serve his time in what many considered a death sentence.

Little did the young Paddy know that he was destined to become a hardworking pioneer of the Tweed Shire’s cedar getters, and would mark many firsts for European settlers.

The commemoration of 150 years since Paddy’s death in 1871 was held at Paddy’s grave at the Tumbulgum Historic Cemetery in Dulguigan by his ancestors Peter Smith and his wife Colleen Smith this week.

The couple had hoped to mark the occasion with extended family at Pat Smith Park on Dulguigan Road on August 22, but COVID-19 lockdowns resulted in restrictions of only two family members able to visit Paddy’s grave and mark the occasion.

Paddy’s story is one of extraordinary grit and determination to make a life in a world that was changing at a rapid pace, for both the Indigenous inhabitants and those settlers that were in many ways condemned to a life in an unfamiliar environment.

Both Mr and Mrs Smith have helped piece together Paddy’s life for The Weekly including how he joined a group of the first Europeans to settle on the banks of the Tweed River and started the arduous task of red cedar getting, which was known as ‘red gold’.

Paddy took his first steps on the banks of the Tweed River at ‘Taranora’, as it was previously spelt, only three years after the first white man, John Oxley, had sailed up the winding river in 1823.

“Little is known of Paddy’s early life in NSW, or what he worked at with J

funding announced

Peter Smith at Paddy’s grave site marking 150 years since his death

Spearing in Five Island,” Mr Smith said, citing historical records from the National Archives of Ireland.

“What is known is that Paddy ended up in Moreton Bay with reference to a Sydney Timber Merchant, Thomas Caffrey.

“In 1843, Paddy had been well upriver on the Tweed examining the potential of the red cedar availability, and from what he saw then convinced him that the Tweed harboured a tremendous amount of red gold.”

What followed was a lucrative partnership with Caffrey to cut and ship red cedar from the Tweed to Sydney and started a rush towards the red gold of Northern NSW. Mr Smith said it was about six years after cedar getting that Paddy met and married 18-year-old Bridget Burke on June 10, 1850.

Bridget had travelled with her young sister Catherine on a ship of orphans from Carlow Workhouse in Ireland, which, according to historic records,

was to provide partners to males in the colony as all were single females and most were orphaned.

The pair were married in Brisbane and the couple returned to the Tweed River, partly by whale boat and the rest of the way on foot via the beaches to the river.

Paddy and Bridget had six children including Patrick, who was the first white child born at The Junction, now known as Tumbulgum, on March 19, 1851.

Paddy continued cedar getting in the upper reaches of the river under an agreement with Henry Skinner. Along with Joshua Bray and Samuel Gray he constructed his home at Kynnumboon.

Paddy is credited with the introduction of the first team of eight bullocks to the Tweed in 1851, and documents highlight the staggering challenges of pushing into dense rainforest.

Paddy’s life was cut short when at the age of 60, whilst felling a red cedar tree growing on his property, the tree fell and crushed him on August 24, 1871.

TWEED SHIRE Councillors have carried a unanimous vote to allocate thousands of dollars in event sponsorship funds.

Among the big winners in the sponsorship funding was Cudgen Headland Surf Life Saving Club who will receive $18,500 for the 2022 Country Surf Life Saving Championships.

transportation internationally over the past 18 months and worsening now, has highlighted food security and the need for greater self-sufficiency in local food production.

Supporting our farmers to expand their productivity is not only good for them, it is essential for the Tweed community and for each of us individually – especially those of us that depend on the weekly availability of fresh local produce.

For those who have been a little uncertain about whether the market is still open, please be assured that the Murwillumbah Farmers’ Market is an essential service and for that reason we will continue to be open every Wednesday from 7am to 11am.

What’s new at the Market

TREE-RANGE CHICKENS – yay! Tom Bjorsten and Nicole Fredman – young enthusiastic farmers and owners of Mistry Creek Agroforestry commenced at the market yesterday.

Tom and Nic are young farmers who have embraced syntropic agroforestry, a regenerative way of farming that mimics the natural function of the local forest.

Their Tree-Range Chickens are organically grown chickens that live a true free range life foraging under trees and shrubs in their

abundant agroforestry (see the photos attached).

Tom said he will be offering his fresh Tree-Range Chickens and cuts for the first time this week.

“So the customers from Murwillumbah and the local villages that flock to the market each week are about to see what a difference it makes letting chickens live as they want to live. The taste and texture is unrivalled,” he said.

Tom and Nicole also grow a range of agroforestry produce.

They have a small market garden that includes ginger, turmeric and garlic plus a recently planted orchard that will supply us with many seasonal fruits in the future.

They are still two or more years off harvesting from this orchard so we look forward to enjoying their kiwi fruit, pineapples, apples, stone fruit, asparagus and much more in the future.

Tom will be at the market each week from now on. His freshly dressed chickens and chicken cuts will be available every three weeks.

On the weeks in between he will have frozen chicken and chicken cuts, so we never miss out.

What’s great at the Market?

BERRIES ARE abundant now with blueberries and strawberries for your berry delight.

Black sapotes are beginning to ripen and are an unusual

but fascinating fruit well worth investigating.

Commonly known as chocolate pudding fruit, this amazing fruit is low in fat and an excellent source of Vitamin C containing about four times as much as an orange.

The fruit is delicious eaten fresh, sliced onto a chia pudding, in smoothies and blended with yoghurt with a dash of lime or lemon juice.

When ripe they have an unappealing look but a delicious taste so try one this week from Jumping Red Ant. Beetroot are now in season and are crispy fresh and delicious.

I love roast beetroot and chocolate beetroot cake. I also enjoy Spice Palace’s beetroot, mint and almond dip.

It is so nourishing it is like a meal in a jar – extremely handy to grab a jar when you are on the run. It is also superb served with rice crackers and for grazing trays.

Sophie Hansen from Local is Lovely has a recipe for a beetroot and fennel relish that sounds delicious.

WE ARE on the cusp of spring and there is such a feeling of new beginnings in the air.

Buds are erupting on deciduous trees as they greet the warm sun shining down on them, mulberries are about to burst into their juicy fullness and many of our market farmers are expanding their market garden footprint and the diversity of produce they grow now and into the future.

Long-term planning is the key to surviving and thriving in the world of farming as in many areas of pursuit and our farmers plan years ahead.

Their short-term planning is for six to 12 months ahead and is influenced by our food purchases, our buying patterns and the conversations that take place during the market.

Seeing and supporting our younger generation of farmers who are either farming with their parents or launching into the business of farming in their own right, is essential for food security in Australia.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals

Farewell to much-loved firefighter Tom Maye after a life of service

By Jo Kennett LOCAL ICON Tom Maye passed away on Sunday, August 15, with his children Angela and Peter, sonin-law Mike and wife Carmel by his side. Sadly only one of his siblings could attend due to COVID-19 restrictions.

The following editorial is an excerpt from the eulogy from Tom’s family read at his funeral service on Friday, August 20, and supplied to The Weekly.

Tom Maye was born Henry Maye Junior in Murwillumbah on April 22, 1939, the eldest son of Henry and Hilda, big brother to Brian, Margie, Nancy and Colleen, husband of Carmel and father to Peter and Angela, father-in-law to Mel and Mike, grandfather to Hayley, Kirsty, Aaron, and Adrion, uncle, friend and mate to many.

Tom grew up on the family’s share farm at Duranbah and at the age of 16, took over the reins to support his parents and siblings..

When he was 24, Tom married Carmel Axelby; he later told Peter and Angela that she was a “good choice” but of course she was much, much more than that and he knew it too.

He loved her and they spent 57 wonderful years together.

In the early days the family farm produced bananas and for a time peanuts, but over the years Tom diversified into tomatoes, sweet potatoes, zucchinis, beans, peas, squash and passion fruit, and he even tried his hand at growing flowers.

Tom was not just a farmer; he had an innate ability to build or fix anything.

As many will know, quite often ‘fixing’ something would entail the use of a decent length of case wire and the occasional bit of brute force.

Tom worked for a brief time as a tiler and a carpenter and those skills were put to good use to build the house in Kingscliff where he and Carmel have lived for the last 30-odd years.

Not many would know this, but there are parts of the house still being supported today through the judicious use of recycled tomato stakes – hey, timber is timber right?

He built sheds, he built boats, he rebuilt cars, trucks and tractors.

He was a decent mechanic, welder and panel beater and he could strip and rebuild just about any engine.

Both he and Carmel worked bloody hard to put meals on the table, clothes on the kids’ backs, a roof over their heads and to give both Peter and Angela the education they needed.

He loved the farm life, but at the same time recognised it was a hard life and something he really didn’t want for either of his kids.

Every Christmas for over 40 years Tom and Carmel made the pilgrimage to Woody Head for a camping holiday, with the GordonSmiths, the Maher families and some years, the Brittons.

They all enjoyed living in a tent at the beach, fishing, swimming, snorkelling and, if the weather was not so flash, playing board games.

Tom, Stan, John and JLK would head up the beach at low tide to

dig for pippies; these were used to catch the worms; which in turn were used to catch the fish – if there were any.

Each afternoon there would be a gathering in ‘The Beer Garden’ where tales were told of the one that got away; Tom enjoyed these times very much.

Tom also enjoyed serving his community, he was a board member of the Vegetable Growers Association for a time and a member of the Kingscliff Lions Club for over 25 years.

He cooked many hamburgers, sausages and onions over the years in the name of charity.

In 1950 at age 11, Tom joined the Duranbah Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade.

His dedication and leadership saw him hold the position of captain of the Duranbah and then Cudgen Bush Fire Brigades for more than 17 years.

He moved on to become a Group Captain and eventually commenced full-time employment with the Tweed Shire Council as the Deputy Fire Control Officer until his retirement.

He was also a life member of the Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade.

A proud moment for Tom and his family was in 2014 when he was presented the Australian Fire Service Medal for distinguished service to the community by the Governor of NSW at Government House in Sydney.

Last month, Tom was recognised for his 70 years of service with the NSW Rural Fire Service (RFS) with a small ceremony at home; unfortunately he wasn’t

CRONIN

Tom passed away earlier this month after a life of service to his community

able to receive the ceremony he so deserved.

He made many lifelong friends through the NSW RFS and considered the NSW RFS to be his “extended family”.

Even after his retirement, Tom continued volunteering for the Rural Fire Service as well as lending a hand on many of his mate’s farms, tinkering in sheds, packing sweet potatoes or carrying out maintenance or repairs on machinery.

He never stopped working with his hands; he loved it and he loved the time with his mates.

Tom was a hard-working, honest man, a man of principle and integrity.

Some may say he was a little ‘stubborn’ but we prefer ‘determined’.

He loved a good yarn, he loved sharing his knowledge and he loved his Slim Dusty music.

He loved being surrounded by his family.

•

JAMES

•

Tom chose ‘Going out the same way we came in’ as the closing song for his service and in true Tom fashion, he would ask you to listen to the words: “We are born into this world without a thing, and we leave it just as naked as we came”.

It’s what Tom did in between that made him stand out from the rest.

He touched many people’s lives as evident by the amount and calibre of comments the family have received from those who knew him.

We love you Tom. You will be missed, but never forgotten.

During the service a NSW RFS flag was presented to the Maye family as a memento and thank you in recognition of Tom’s service to the community as a NSW RFS member.

At the end of his service a small guard of honour was formed by several NSW RFS members and the hearse was led away by the Cudgen Rural Fire Brigade truck sounding its siren for Tom for the last time.

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals when he was possibly the most dominant player in the game.

The talk (and I believe meetings) for the 17th franchise occurred this week, what the Storm do should be a blueprint for any new team wanting to enter the competition.

They have missed the finals only three times in 22 years and have played in the decider 10 times. It is simply unbelievable.

They always have stars which comes down to quality recruiting. Let’s not forget they got Smith, Cronk and Slater from under the Broncos noses and then found a skinny freak called Inglis in Kempsey (Qld!).

Currently they have Jahrome Hughes, who the Titans punted at the end of 2013 and the Cowboys were happy to let go in 2016. Addo-Carr was let go by the Tigers (as was Pappy). Remis Smith got the bullet from the Dogs (he would be devastated!) Nicho Hynes was a Manly junior, ended up in Mackay and now is spearheading the Storm on his way to $600k next year at the Sharks.

The Bromwich brothers are stalwarts with Jesse (who has captained NZ) found

at the Footy with Quinny WE ARE simply blessed in the NRL with a plethora of fullbacks.

I’ve been spruiking Tommy Turbo for the last two weeks, he has the weekend off and James Tedesco produces a performance that was breathtaking.

His statistics were off the charts, but the amazing thing was the majority of his numbers were accrued in the first half.

He genuinely was involved in everything good the Roosters did. They are down on troops, lost a few more on the weekend and still Tedesco produced an amazing performance.

The scoreline indicates an easy Chooks win, but it was anything of the sort, however, with Tedesco in the team they are a chance every week. I spoke about those players that make a dressing room confident and he sure is an example of that. I love his competitiveness, his anticipation, his desire and that doesn’t even talk about his skill.

Add to that Papenhuyzen returned on the weekend after a lengthy break

at Orange and that doesn’t include the tripod legged kid from Rocky Munster (I’ve mentioned several times how much of a fan I am).

He’s a character, a larrikin and one hell of a player. It goes without saying I’m on them to claim another premiership, even after the GOAT in Cameron Smith retired last year, the club is just amazing.

Couple of crucial games this week to determine fourth and also the bottom end. The Titans need to get a result to ensure a finals finish. A loss and it’s anybody’s spot and win and they are a chance.

The Roosters will be desperate for a result against the old rivals Souths but they are genuinely limping into the finals and Manly will genuinely fancy their chances of a top 4 result and so do I. The NRRRL are hoping to get going again next week with a lockdown lift but credit must go to Cudgen who finished the season undefeated.

The make up of the semi’s remains to be seen with Covid restrictions but Wayde Kelly, Tanya Booth, Mark Harrison and the crew are genuinely doing their best to have a team lift the trophy at seasons end.

See you at the footy. Quinny

Holding Shot with Judy Tuckey CUDGEN LEAGUES Women’s Pairs championship was also concluded prior to the recent lockdown.

Photo finishing final ends in the semis and final complimented the overall quality bowls delivered during this event.

Semi one saw ye olde ex Murwillumbah “Green Machine”, Mary Chisholm and Carolyn Caine, following the demise of their original club and a stint at Condong, and now gracing the Cudgen Leagues Greens, challenging Cudgen Club stalwart Jan Gillie and fellow Murwillumbah ex-patriot, Mary Mummery, for a shot at the final.

Mary and Carolyn fired up early and held a seven shot lead after seven ends. Mary M and Jan responded with a seven shot haul during the next four ends, only conceding one end whilst doing so.

Six shots collected from the next three ends gave Mary and Carolyn a handy seven shot lead once more.

However, whilst Mary M and Jan came back strongly to keep their opposition scoreless during the last four ends, time ran out thus allowing Mary and Carolyn to claim victory with minimal shots to spare.

Local bowler Margaret Trapnell, combined with Joan Lawson, another Murwillumbah ex-patriot, survived a tough encounter with imported Condongian, Jenny Glasby, and local Lynne Roche in Semi Two. Glasby and Roche grabbed the lead early and certainly had their hands full maintaining that position during this close scoring contest.

However, dropping a four in the latter ends of the game, Jenny and Lynne relinquished their narrow

Tweed Valley Weekly Locals Supporting Locals lead to a now fired up Trapnell and Lawson.

With only three ends left to play, Margaret and Joan held on well to claim to claim the spoils and their spot in the final.

Margaret Trapnell and Joan Lawson opened the card in the final and skipped away to a ten shot lead after four ends.

Digging deep, Mary Chisholm and Carolyn Caine then began scoring in a tough fight back. Still trailing sadly after the thirteenth end, the Green Machine then fast tracked a speedy recovery to collect eleven unanswered shots during the next three ends to snatch a narrow lead.

In a nail biting final two ends, Margaret and Joan contained Mary and Carolyn to claim victory and the title. Congrats to both teams on a super final.

Cudgen Leagues WBC recently conducted a Memorial Day for the late Lorna Arnott.

Margaret Trapnell, Joan Lawson – Cudgen Leagues WBC Pairs champions

This loyal member, loved and respected by all, passed away twelve months ago.

Lorna was extremely dedicated to her club, having served on several committees over the years.

With the green filled to capacity, a wonderful afternoon of bowls,

capped with a luscious afternoon tea, in her honour, was everything Club loving Lorna would have wished for. RIP Lorna Arnott.

Stay safe and well and be kind to each other.

Between the Flags Cudgen Headland SLSC - Keith Kennedy

WE RECORD the recent passing of our late member Hec Smith at the age of 100 years recently.

Hec gained his Bronze Medallion on in December 1949 and as a competitor he won the Point Danger Branch Single Ski Title in 1951 and 1952.

He became our first member to win a State Title in 1953, when he won the Queensland Ski Title.

He served the club as a delegate to branch and led the club for the 1957 to ‘58 season as president.

This Saturday evening the winners of the NSW Awards of Excellence will be announced.

Our Club has been nominated by the Branch in eight categories.

There are 129 Clubs in the NSW 11 Branches.

COVID-19 restrictions make planning for the coming season unpredictable with patrols due

Hec Smith lived to 100 and lived life the fullest at the Cudgen Surf Life Saving Club

to start in the September School holiday period.

Currently our Club is in lockdown with competition training suspended and also the ‘Coldies’ Sunday swim. Should patrols start the Queensland.

Border restriction affects the membership of the Tweed Clubs.

Major competition events cancelled or looking for new dates are the Australian IRB Titles and the pool rescue to be held at Southport.

A tentative date for the Coolangatta Gold is now November 13 to 14.

Building alterations at the southern end of the Club are continuing with the concrete slab completed with the project on track to be completed mid September.

Committee Elections for ’21 – ’22 are on hold at present due to restrictions.

Murwillumbah Cup goes ahead in fine fashion for one young jockey Contributed by Jeff Hanson NSW Country and Picnic Racing HEADING INTO Friday’s Murwillumbah Cup meeting, Jasper Franklin was only 37 starts into his burgeoning career, having already booted home four winners and made a name for himself in Northern NSW as an apprentice to watch.

In a performance that will live with the 18-year-old for the rest of his days, Franklin had four rides for an incredible four wins at Friday’s Showcase program, including a victory in the Tygalgah Cup aboard the Stephen Lee trained Pleased.

“I rode my first four winners and my first cup winner on the same day – it doesn’t get much better than that,” Franklin said.

“After riding three winners, I was pretty happy but riding a cup winner really put the cherry on top.”

The Grafton product, who is the son of former jockey Craig Franklin, is apprentice to Matthew Dunn, and he rode a double for his boss, along with a good winner for David McColm.

Kicking off Franklin’s big day, Our Rebel started a $2.70 favourite in the 1550m Class Two Handicap, and the pair were too good for their rivals, winning by nearly three lengths.

Franklin had another comfortable victory in the 1200m Class One Handicap, prevailing on the Dunn trained Courageous, with his mount starting a $2 favourite before winning by 3.71 lengths.

In a tighter result, the young hoop worked hard to get another $2 favourite, Sweeping The Board, over the line in the 1100m Benchmark 58 Handicap, winning by a mere 0.36 of a length.

It wouldn’t be until the final race of the day that Franklin rode his fourth winner, securing the Tygalgah Cup when Pleased ($9) stormed home down the outside to win the 2020m race by less than a length.

Franklin admitted he had some very good rides but was extremely surprised to land four winners on the day.

“I was really confident with my first three rides. I thought they were my best of the day and they all won well,” Franklin said.

“I was really surprised with Steve’s (Pleased), I knew it won its last start, but it really surprised me with the way it hit the line at end.”

It has been a cracking start to a promising career, but Franklin was not getting too far ahead of himself and was prepared to work harder to impress trainers and owners alike.

“It was a huge thrill, yesterday it brought up my 41st ride and

to have four winners on the day, especially on a showcase day, it was great,” Franklin said.

“It’s good to get those winners, but obviously to get on the good horses and the $2 favourites helps too, and you need to be showing that you’re capable of getting the job done and that’s all I am worried about right now.

“Today, I was straight back into trackwork, then working out and it is good to thrive on success and get better as a rider, but you don’t let it go to your head, you need to go back to your job.”

Franklin thanked those around him for the support early in his career, with Matt and Keira Dunn, who trained four winners at Murwillumbah on Friday, giving the three-kilogram claimer every possible chance.

“They’ve really guided me in the right direction, Matt and Keira have helped me from day one,” Franklin said.

“I rocked up as a 16-year-old kid wanting to be a good jockey and they have been there all the way, and my dad (Craig Franklin) has really guided me on the right path, keeping me out of trouble and helping me out.”

It wasn’t just a huge day for Franklin on Friday, but also the Tweed River Jockey Club, with the running of the Murwillumbah Cup and Newmarket Handicap.

Apprentice jockey Jasper Franklin rode four winners at Murwillumbah on Friday, August 20

In the feature event of the day, Stewart Campbell and Ben Looker combined to win the $50,000 cup with Macchina Volante, holding off Ready to Humble and Willo Titto.

In the $40,000 Newmarket, Daniel Bowen teamed up with Kirk Matheson when Amirykal won the 1200m jump and run event, holding off See It Thru and Zanthus.

Tweed invited to Wear It Purple Day to celebrate diversity

By Jonathon Howard WEAR PURPLE It Day is on Friday, August 27, and Tweed Shire residents are being called upon to join in and celebrate sexual and gender diversity and improve LGBTIQSB (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer, sistergirl and brotherboy) acceptance.

Alanah Still, who lives on the Queensland-New South Wales border, is part of the youthled coalition, Q*Network, run through headspace Tweed Heads and the leading social justice organisation, Social Futures.

Q*Network is a youth-led coalition coordinating schools, services and community members addressing a community need at the local level.

The young people demonstrate community leadership and their goal is to stamp out homophobia and transphobia forever in the Tweed, Byron and the Gold Coast.

Every year since 2017, Alanah and other young people from Q*Network and the headspace Youth Advisory Group have run a local event as part of Wear It Purple Day (WIPD), an international day supporting pride and safety for diverse young people.

“WIPD events are important because they provide a safe and affirming space for LGBTIQSB people in the community, and celebrate and uplift Queer identities and stories,” Ms Still said.

“These events send a vital message to LGBTIQSB youth

in the community, who face challenges such as bullying, hate and denial of identity, that they are seen and cared for.”

Ms Still said this year, a lastminute lockdown plan will see a switch to a virtual movie screening of the film ‘The Prom’ plus an online ‘Purple Pre-Party’.

“The best thing about our local Wear It Purple Day events is the strength in unity and sense of community they create. There’s a real sense of pride and celebration, and always a whole lot of fun,” she said.

Nineteen-year-old Bee, who wished to remain anonymous and who also lives locally, is another of the young organisers.

Bee, who identifies as nonbinary, was bullied at school and seen as not ‘feminine enough’ and developed anxiety after spending three years trying to ‘be a girl’.

“I never felt like a girl, but because of the bullying I tried to get a very feminine look, then in my final school years I tried to cover myself up more and more because I just didn’t feel like a girl,” Bee said.

Anxiety and poor health in year 12 led Bee to drop out of school last year, but Bee says the decision to come out as non-binary feels good and Bee now wants to study writing.

However, Bee still suffers social anxiety, because so few people understand what non-binary means or why using correct pronouns are so important to a person’s identity and well-being.

Tweed Shire residents are invited to take part in Wear it Purple Day online this Friday, August 27

“Personally, I’m happy when someone says ‘Hello mate’ to me, because anyone can be a mate and it expresses warmth and acceptance,” Bee said.

“I’ve joined the Q*Network – a youth-driven network of young people working to provide

safety, support, acceptance and celebration for LGBTIQAP+ young people in southern Queensland and northern NSW. “The Q*network has helped me a lot, especially as I can find out what’s happening in the community and express my concerns.”

“I still live in a small town.

Because my town is small, it’s so much harder to find people who are like me.”

Anyone interested in attending the online event can register to attend via the headspace Tweed Heads Facebook page.

Tweed children more vulnerable than ever Ms Geale said Bravehearts’ White Balloon Day is a day of action and the first step in raising awareness to “create a safer world for our kids”.

“Children are at risk more than ever through COVID-19, particularly as they isolate with predators that are known to the family,” she said.

“Additionally, our children are more vulnerable to online predators during lockdown, where they are spending more time unsupervised online.

“It’s crucial we continue to shine a light on these risks and that children and families are still receiving support and education.”

By Jonathon Howard CHILDREN ARE at greater risk from sexual harm during lockdowns, according to Bravehearts, who is urging residents to join the annual White Balloon Day on Friday, September 10.

Approximately one in five children will experience sexual assault or exploitation and in up to 90 per cent of cases the offender is known to the family, according to the Royal Commission into Child Sexual Abuse in 2017.

Bravehearts is Australia’s leading child protection organisation and is committed to the holistic prevention of child sexual abuse and exploitation.

Bravehearts is this year marking 25 years of fighting the good fight against sexual assault of children.

“It’s time to break the silence and stigma surrounding child sexual assault – it’s everyone’s job to keep our children safe,” Bravehearts CEO, Alison Geale, said.

IN MUSIC, the silences between the notes are just as important to the melody as the next tone played.

The space creates the rhythm, allows drama to creep in, or an emotion to settle a little deeper. It gives it weight, so to speak.

Waiting in anticipation can sometimes seem a heavy load to bear, but it offers a moment’s reflection on what has just been played, the vibration of which still hangs in the air after the audible sound fades away. Of course, this can be metaphorically applied to life itself… I believe Life can be lived Artfully and Art explores what it is to be alive! It’s a continual feedback loop of experimentation and evolution.

Most things in nature come in waves and cycles, and creativity is no different. Like our natural resources, it cannot be treated as an endless font. Rejuvenation and retreat are as much a part of an artist’s own seasons as the explosively driven moments of inspired creation. The Winter of the Soul allows the mind to compost ideas. Over the past year (yes, my anniversary at the helm

slipped by, unnoticed and uncelebrated!)

I have woven my vision, tested different rhythms, genres, and various events, trying to ascertain which of my tastes were attuned to this community. Now Lockdown presents a perfect opportunity to pause, regroup, complete repairs and maintenance, rearrange, and consider carefully how to keep bringing you all the wonderful music and films we have planned, even if restrictions continue.

The streaming set-up is being installed as we speak, which I am particularly excited about! Even before Covid changed so much about our world, when I first started dreaming about running The Regent five years ago, the ability to broadcast shows and events was integral to the plan.

So, Spring is just around the corner, the seeds planted are starting to shoot, and by Summer we’ll certainly be in full bloom!

Just remember, the darkest times are always right before the light; the dawns, like silence, have been golden lately. The kookaburra’s cackle. The beat goes on!

By Solar Chapel FROM LOCKDOWNS to reopening, more lockdowns and then more reopenings, the arts and live events community have learnt to roll with the punches just like everybody else in the last 18 months.

For those of us creating live events, this constant cycle is a real test of our tolerance when the core aspect of our work is about gathering for a shared experience.

Recent restrictions have certainly put an end to the industry in NSW for the second half of this year.

Festivals and events across the Tweed have either been rescheduled or cancelled as we all navigate the changing landscape.

Murwillumbah Arts Trail just scraped in before the new restrictions were announced and was able to still go ahead in May. Just a month later, venue capacity limits and state border closures came in very suddenly, once again.

Murwillumbah Theatre Company has had to reschedule its production of Beep to November due to recent restrictions.

President Diane Robinson says the Company have certainly learnt flexibility and resilience during the last 18 months.

“We have only been able to do one full production since the pandemic began.

Normally we would do 27 productions throughout the year,” she said.

“We are also officially postponing our end of year pantomime until early 2022.”

Tyalgum village hosts three major annual festivals – The Heart of the Caldera Wellness Festival, O’Heart Festival, and the Tyalgum Music Festival. All have been postponed to 2022.

The annual Midwinter Shakespeare banquet dinner theatre event held at Flutterbies Cafe has now also been postponed for the second time this year.

Amid all of this restriction, it is hard to keep a good creative artist down and learning to find new ways to get the work out there in lockdown has become part of life for artists across the globe.

Shepherd’s Purse Theatre Company’s upcoming production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream has now been postponed for

a second time this year, with new dates yet to be announced.

Cast members based in Sydney, Ballina, Brisbane and Tyalgum come together for Zoom rehearsals regularly.

We have been rehearsing since April, and several of our cast are spread across the country, so rehearsing our lines together over Zoom means that we don’t lose the work we have already done, and we can keep the play fresh and alive until we are able to perform.

Local epic folk band The Heart Collectors have been riding the social media wave to find new ways to connect with audiences and stay active in the folk music community.

From lockdown, they have released their fourth studio album ‘Time to Say I Love You’, participated in new online platforms like Global Music Match, digitally showcased at Folk Alliance International Conference, ISOLAID, and Canadian Music Week.

The band’s lead singer Kymrie Henge said “right now, we are releasing new music videos for our YouTube series ‘Live from the Garden’”.

“To continue connecting with audiences around the world, to inspire and help bring hope into the homes of people globally at this most difficult time,” she said.

Tyalgum of course offers many unique events, and all of those will come back as regulations start to ease.

Some of these include several community events: The Tyalgum Community Hall fundraiser dinner on Saturday, September 11, to raise much needed funds for the Hall stage curtains and lighting.

The Tyalgum Community Barbecue Day, an initiative of the Tyalgum District Community Association – an information and family day for the village to be held on October 10.

The Garden of Light Spring Tours will also start in September.

Hearts Aflame Productions’ Annual Tyalgum Dance Spectacular is scheduled for Saturday, November 6, at Tyalgum Hall, hosted by ‘Dancing with the Stars’ judge Mark Wilson.

It will all come back. We are learning a new way.

We must use the restrictions as an opportunity to find ways to keep our work alive, and to really appreciate our coming together in person, when the time comes for us to do so once again.

Q&A with Shivam Rath the crystal slider

By Nick Hanlon SHIVAM RATH is a unique performer in the Indian-Kirtan sphere of music, utilising traditional Indian harmonies plus incorporating low-fi loops to create a fresh sound.

Due to lockdown, Shivam cannot play as planned on August 29, but he will make a grand return to The Regent’s beautiful Balcony on Sunday, October 10. We caught up for a chat and a chai.

1. What’s your first memory of music?

My first formal memory of music is singing with my father Indian scales (Do, Re, Mi equivalent – Sa, Re, Ga) for pocket money in Suffolk Park, Byron Bay. 2. Why were you drawn to Indian music?

With a father who named me Shivam and played Indian music himself it could seem clear. But then again I rebelled for a long time until I left Byron at 18 and began living with my father in Sydney. This eventually led me to yoga which led me independently to India where I met my father’s Tabla teacher and began formal training.

3. When did you start playing the crystal slide?

I play the Hindustani Slide Guitar (Hawaiian Lap Steel meets Sitar), my father and my Tabla teacher directed me to that instrument given

my inclination to melody and strings. After losing my slide in the Himalayas I began exploring other objects to use and eventually drew upon a Crystal Ball. Crystal Slide is like a stage gimmick.

4. What are you doing during lockdown?

I am producing new work and practicing blending acoustic looping with electronic synthesis, for deeper sub-bass frequencies to contrast with the high-end of my instruments.

When COVID began I received a scholarship at SAE – a two-year course that I am nearly halfway into.

5. How can people best support your music?

I think Bandcamp is one of the best platforms to buy music directly from independent artists as opposed to online streaming. However, even without buying “my music” simply subscribing to my YouTube channel or to my website encourages me with feedback and communication.

6. What are the three best albums ever in your humble opinion?

My musical taste is always changing so this is actually the hardest question yet. Stevie Wonder – Higher Ground, Ravi Shankar – Chants of India and Debashish Bhattacharya – O Shakuntala.

Sophie

Sophie is a 4 year old desexed/vaccinated/ microchipped blue purebred American staffy. She is an ex breeding dog who has spent all her life producing puppies for sale. It’s time of the now for her to have some ‘me’ time and the love and attention she deserves. She gets on well with other dogs but staffies are always happier without other animals as they crave human attention and love and will give it back 10 fold. She is strong on the lead but is responding well to training and wants to please. No cats or young children please.

Swap a Bottle is a locally family owned & operated Lp Gas supply business which prides itself on great service and competitive pricing.

Based at 10 Kite Crescent Murwillumbah, we service all over the local area with distributors also based from the Gold Coast to the Tweed Coast.

We offer “no Rental” fees on our cylinders and you can even drop in and pick up a large gas bottle and have your own bbq bottle filled onsite for $20 while you wait! Your gas cyclinder must be in test and in good condition.

Amy and I were born & raised in Lismore NSW, Moving to the Tweed over 20 years ago. After almost 30 years continued work for a large gas corporation it was time to start our own small gas business while starting our own family.

We started small in gas fitting then moved into outdoor heater hire and gas supply to restaurants. With such support & demand we broadened into gas swap cages and then eventually the large 45kg cylinders.

It’s been rewarding having our family grow alongside our business.

Murwillumbah is a great town to be established in, with many local families and businesses supporting us. We enjoy the same

privilege using the quality trades and suppliers the town has to offer.

We would love the opportunity to help you out with Lp gas needs!

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately?

Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacrificial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efficiently working system and a costly replacement.

Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion.

THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS Cutaway section of a typical electric hot water heater

FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE.

“REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

Plans submitted for three-storey villas at Pottsville

By Jo Kennett A WELL-KNOWN block of units on Elanora Avenue in Pottsville could be demolished and replaced by a threestory building with eight villas, pending development application approval by Tweed Shire Council, but many locals are not impressed with the plans.

‘Alcheringa’ overlooks Mooball Creek in Elanora Avenue, just off Tweed Coast Road.

The Weekly spoke with Les Hardy, who has lived in Pottsville all his life.

“Bert and Margaret Overall built them; they would have been there for 50 years easy,” Mr Hardy said.

“There was a house there years ago and then they built the eight flats.

“It was always going to happen, but I didn’t think you were able to build three storeys in Pottsville.

“Ross Hardy from Hardy’s Haulage owned them for a while, but I don’t know who owns them now.

“There are two or three blocks of ground there and it looks all the way up the river.

“I did a bit of concreting up there a couple of times and the view was magic; you can see right round to Byron Bay.” Alcheringa was sold to developers Omira Property Group, who also developed St Barts at Kingscliff, on July 23 this year.

A development application for the demolition of Alcheringa and the subdivision of the twolot block into four lots, each lot with two dual occupancies, was received by Council in July.

The estimated cost of the development is $6 million.

While it is not known who owned the block of units when they were sold in July, the new owners registered Elanora Breeze Pty Ltd with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) in April this year.

The eight proposed threestorey villas would be within the nine-metre height limit of the R3 Medium Density Residential Zone.

Each of the eight four-bedroom villas will have a terrace and a swimming pool overlooking the estuary and Mooball Creek.

Alcheringa sold on July 23 this year and there’s plans to redevelop the site

The garages for the villas would be on the ground level of the Elanora Avenue side.

The site of the block is 2,023 square metres and the total floor area of each villa over the three storeys is 251 square metres with 28 square metres of balconies.

The news hasn’t thrilled everyone with locals taking to social media concerned that

A plan of the building seen from Elanora Avenue

the luxury villas were an ‘over development of the site’ and suggestions the it ‘would not help the Tweed’s housing crisis’.

Some took issue with the number of residents and vehicles that could be housed in the development and potential traffic issues.

Some were concerned that the trees on the block would be removed should it be approved.

Locals can have a say on the proposal for 7-9 Elanora Avenue, Pottsville on the Council website under DA21/0582 or by mail to Tweed Shire Council, PO Box 816, Murwillumbah. NSW 2484.

Submissions must be titled ‘SUBMISSION’ and include the DA number DA21/0582.

Submissions close on September 1.
